Problem Setting Up Connection to MS SQL Server 20052

Hi Experts,

I need a BI JDBC System in portal to connect to MS SQL Server 2005.

The connection properties i had entered is:

Connection URL: jdbc:sqlserver://<server host name>:1433;database=TOMAS_DW

Driver Name: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver

But i still get a failed in test connection test which says:

Class Not Found: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver

com.sap.ip.bi.sdk.exception.BIResourceException: Class DriverName is not found

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver

i had followed instructions to import the MS SQL Server driver sqljdbc1.2 (sqljdbc.jar) into Visual Administrator.

Please help and thank you in advance.

Sarah
